Good question as we are approaching the 100th Anniversary of WW1. Militaria from that period should increase in value as more people become interested in it during this time. The German WW1 Pikelhaulbe starts around $350 for a good example. These leather helmets are susceptible to shrinkage over the years so they are getting scarce. The German helmet with the 3 color camoflage is very rare and hard to find. The German Iron Cross medal is not as expensive as a WW2 Nazi Iron Cross. The 2nd Class Iron Cross(with ribbon) is only worth about $50. An American uniform with insignia pins and patches will start at $250 and can go higher depending on the unit and condition.
Send an email with the photos to the email address listed on my bio page, and I will forward them to an expert in these things. Shell casings may be worth very little, or they may be worth a considerable amount, dependent on a number of things, including rarity.
world war II
There were thousands of types, you'd have to narrow that down. A shell from a Bofors 40mm wouldn't be worth anything, but one from a 16 " battleship gun could be priceless.
All sides in WW1 used artillery.
Most of the tanks in World War 1 were very slow they were also extremely heavy so they could sink into the mud.They were prone to mechanical failure and they couldn't withstand a direct hit from an artillery shell.
They were nicknamed Anzio Annie and were capable of firing a 562 pound artillery shell as far as 31 miles.
An " artillery barrage" was the term
yes it was
it didnt
an artillery attack
A "155" artillery round is a 155 mm (diameter) shell, approximately 6 inches. Examples of guns that fire this type of shell are the 155 mm M114 howitzer, developed just before World War II.
Artillery in WW1 was used in Battery or even larger formations.
Fire artillery shells at the enemy.
